The last word we've received from the government is that we will likely not be allowed to run day camps until the middle of July. As soon as we are given the thumbs up, we will do our best to get our day camp program up and running asap. Kids in the city are really needing a break from all of this!
We've got a round pen set up on our yard and its working real good! Now were just waiting for those fence panels. Maybe later this year we will get to getting our riding arena set up.
My days at camp mostly consist of building things, maintenance, mowing, a little bit of admin work, and whatever else is asked of me, and I am enjoying it!
Our newest animal additions at Rise Again Ranch are 2 little Berkshire pigs, Entree and Appy!
I've been listening to lots of Christian leadership podcasts while i've been working, and i've really been enjoying it, being challenged, and feeling more willing to tackle what the Lord has ahead of me.
A Prayer request item! We are wanting to figure out what's the best option going forward to feeding our horses over winter. We have a decent amount of hayland (That's just wild, Gimli-like not great variety) So we're praying for wisdom, partnerships, help, direction, in perhaps working up the hay land and reseeding. We don't have the equipment to hay it ourselves, but if we know the land produces enough hay to support this number of horses with a fixed cost of somebody coming to custom bale each year, we can increase our herd to use for trail rides fairly quick from that point while keeping a consistent budget for it.
A Prayer request item! I feel like we are in a good place to minister with our Ranch, we just need a few key relationships/partnerships. We are just over an hour away from the largest First Nation in Manitoba, we are 10 minutes away from an Adult Addiction Recovery center, we have our relationship with Gimli Bible Camp!!, and we have been asked to consider being part of a youth ministry group for Gimli. So there are 4 key ministry areas that are potentials.
A Prayer request item! For the Lord to give us faith to do what he's calling us to. May he help us be wise in Kingdom ways, and not in the ways of the world. It would be easy to hide behind excuses that are 'quite reasonable' in not pushing forward in our ministry.
A Prayer request item! Amanda is still feeling not 100% in a number of ways. That the Lord would energize every part of her life, so she can keep pouring out to those who come to her!
Thank you for your love, support, visits, encouragement. We love getting mail, we are blessed by your prayers, we our thankful for our team the Lord has blessed us with.
